  • Summary

  • Welcome to the Jazz Lion’s Den, a journey through Levy Lee Simon’s debut Memoir Odyssey Towards The Light

    I’d just graduated with my BA in Theatre and Journalism from Cheyney State College,
    had my first apartment in the Boogey Down Bronx, and experienced my first heartbreak,
    well second if I’m to be honest. This was the beginning of what I call the roaring 80s. It
    was a wild time, sex, R&B, Hip Hop, the Hustle, and along with all that came drugs
    and alcohol. I was out and about NYC, running in the fast lane, Justines, Pippins,
    Leviticus, La Martinique, to name a few, and after hour spots such as the River Ridge,
    and the Room in the Bronx and Browns in Brooklyn. It was an exciting time. It was a fun
    time, until it wasn’t. In this episode, I’ll be reading a short excerpt from, “The Roaring
    80s.” This segment I subtitle “Gus.” You’ll see why.
